We call 'em "cute utes," and they're increasingly all the rage. What are they? Subcompact crossover SUVs, the 21st-century version of the "econo-boxes" of the late 20th century — minus the box, but with lots of econo.

They're also fairly adorable, wittle smushed-down SUVs that don't resemble that 1990s hatchback, which screamed "college student" or "first job." Hence the cute before ute.

We may be looking at a paradigm shift in the auto industry in the US... Читать дальше...

Vice President Joe Biden suggested he would fight Donald Trump over lewd comments the GOP presidential nominee made about groping women.

"He said ‘because I’m famous, because I’m a star, because I’m a billionaire I can do things other people can’t. What a disgusting assertion for anyone to make,” Biden said at a campaign event in Pennsylvania on Friday.

In the now infamous video leaked earlier this month, Trump can be heard saying, "You know I'm automatically attracted to beautiful ... Читать дальше...

At 1,401 feet tall, One Vanderbilt tower will soon become the second tallest skyscraper in New York City.

To make room for the tower, which celebrated its groundbreaking on October 18, five buildings in midtown Manhattan needed to be knocked down. The site stretches from 42nd to 43rd Street on Vanderbilt Avenue, and the full demolition took 18 months, Joe Ross, the EVP of AECOM Tishman (which led the demolition), tells Business Insider. 

The process happened in four phases and wrapped up in August... Читать дальше...

The Rams are now back in Los Angeles for the first time since the 1994, but that was just the first step in the re-birth of a franchise that will also include a state-of-the-art $1.8 billion stadium and a uniform change that is yet to be announced, but should please a lot of old fans.

With the move, the Rams are still wearing a uniform that the team never wore in Los Angeles, the blue and "true" gold combination that was adopted in 2000. This left most fans and many former players calling for a switch. Читать дальше...

Clinched your first managerial position? High five — it's a huge win for your career. The bigger paycheck, the coveted title, the authority to lead game-changing projects … no downsides there, right?

Well, hear us out. Being a first-time manager poses some surprising challenges.

While doing press for his surprise Donald Trump movie that he released on Tuesday after making it in secret, "Michael Moore in TrumpLand," Michael Moore made it very clear what he thinks about those voting for Donald Trump.

While talking to Rolling Stone, the Oscar-winning director said that he made his movie in an attempt to convince undecideds that voting for Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton isn't a bad idea. And that Trump supporters will be hurting the country. Читать дальше...

Anthony Bourdain spent decades in the restaurant industry, first as an executive chef before becoming a celebrity travel guide 16 years ago.

Over that time, he's seen the American food industry change drastically for the better, but an uptick in snobbery is the other side of the double-edged sword, he said.

"I don't need a 10-minute description of my food," he told Business Insider earlier this year, ahead of Season 7 of his Emmy-winning CNN show "Parts... Читать дальше...

You don't have to wait until you have a degree to get a job and start paying off your college debt.

The key to finding a part-time job for a busy college student is to look for high-quality positions with a flexible schedule that are from a trustworthy source, says Brie Reynolds, a senior career specialist at FlexJobs.

"There are a lot of scams in work-from-home jobs, so college students should be aware of them and be cautious when searching," she explains. Читать дальше...

The Internet of Things has been held up as the next big technology revolution that will lower business costs and make employees more productive, but it brings with it major baggage for corporate leaders.

Cybersecurity experts warn that IoT is one of the most vulnerable areas in the enterprise, and massive IoT device armies are one of the most effective ways to launch cyberattacks.

On Friday, a major attack took down a number of big websites such as Amazon, Twitter, and Spotify. Читать дальше...

CNBC Squawk Box

Microsoft's former CEO Steve Ballmer told CNBC’s 'Squawk Box' that he was never in favor of Microsoft buying Salesforce.

When asked if he thought the Salesforce deal was the "one that got away," Ballmer held up his hands and said, "Look, I am a guy who actually believes in revenue and profit. I really do. And you can dilute something and get nothing back. I’ll just tell you, I could never make the math work on Salesforce. Never, ever, ever, ever. Ever. Never."

The American people deserve answers.

From how much Donald Trump has been in the media and out on the campaign trail, most of America has wondered why, exactly, the Republican nominee for president looks like he ate entirely too many carrots?

In fact, Trump has seemingly always given off such an orange hue, though it might be more apparent now given how omnipresent his visage is.

Though no one knows for sure what the source is, many makeup artists and tanning experts have a pretty good guess... Читать дальше...

Jason and Julie Buckley

Jason and Julie Buckley have diligently tracked their pennies for years.

At first, it was part of their strategy to minimize everyday costs, pay off their mortgage, and invest in passive index funds. But eventually, the pair discovered they could afford to take up to two years off work to travel.

In 2011, the Buckleys set off to tour Europe and North Africa in their motor home, earning passive income from renting out their residential properties at home in Nottingham, England. Читать дальше...

Copper is not a good doctor.

Investors believe that the metal's price is a reliable way to gauge the health of the global economy, and have nicknamed it "Dr. Copper" for this reason.

Copper is found in things like electrical cables, roofing, and other components of the largest capital projects undertaken anywhere.

And so, if copper prices fall because demand is weak, it's seen as showing a deeper rut elsewhere in the global economy.

Shortly after the birth of their first child over a decade ago, Chip and Joanna Gaines, now the stars of HGTV's hit home-renovation show "Fixer Upper," experienced a financial wake-up call when Chip was thrown in the county jail for about $2,500 in unpaid tickets.

The tickets were issued after neighbors complained that the couple's dogs were illegally roaming the street in front of their house, they write in their new book "The Magnolia Story." To pay Chip's $800 bail, Joanna... Читать дальше...

Facebook employees reportedly pushed to censor posts from Donald Trump until CEO Mark Zuckerberg intervened, according to The Wall Street Journal's Deepa Seetharaman.

Some employees allegedly said that a post on Trump's Facebook page from December about the presidential candidate's call to ban all Muslims from entering the U.S. should be taken down as hate speech. Zuckerberg then personally ruled "that it would be inappropriate to censor the candidate," the report notes.

On Wednesday night, Donald Trump made the mistake of calling Hillary Clinton a "nasty woman" during the last presidential debate. It was a huge mistake.

Aside from being rude, Trump made the same mistake Clinton made when she called his supporters "deplorables" a few weeks ago.

Since Trump made that statement, women around the country have taken up "nasty woman" as a rallying cry against Trump, and a moniker, the same way Trump's supporters took up deplorables. Читать дальше...
